Samsung Mobiles aiming for 20 percent market share in India , bringing 7 new models

on July 17, 2009 – 7:04 am9 Comments

Samsung which is very much a household brand name in Asia is striving hard to increase its market share in India according to a PTI report. Samsung Mobiles which was once having a very minor share of the handset market in India now has a share of about 10-15% according to country head of Samsung India , Sunil Dutt. Its interesting to note that Sunil was part of the top brass in Nokia India a couple of years back. Good news for Samsung fans, the company plans to launch over 7 new models in India in July and August including the hugely awaited Omnia HD

The company has a lot of handsets in the low end segment but in the high-end there was nothing impressive so far. Looks like it wants to change this myth

The new launches expected are as follows

Omnia HD – Rs.36000

Omnia Pro 7610 – Rs.27000

Omnia Pro 7320 – Rs.17500

B2100 Marine – No word on price

Android Galaxy – No word on price

Pixon 12 – Rs.34000 – It will be the first 12 MP phone to release in the market if Sony does not release Idou soon.

This might be old news to some of you but we have had a lot of requests about the launch of the upcoming Samsung phones in India, so this is just a reminder for you all !
